Qian Cai reports seemingly random buffer read verifier errors during
filesystem writeback. This was isolated to a recent patch that
factored out some inode cluster freeing code and happened to cast an
unsigned inode number type to a signed value. If the inode number
value overflows, we can skip marking in-core inodes associated with
the underlying buffer stale at the time the physical inodes are
freed. If such an inode happens to be dirty, xfsaild will eventually
attempt to write it back over non-inode blocks. The invalidation of
the underlying inode buffer causes writeback to read the buffer from
disk. This fails the read verifier (preventing eventual corruption)
if the buffer no longer looks like an inode cluster. Analysis by
Dave Chinner.
Fix up the helper to use the proper type for inode number values.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
